In its heyday, the Thunderbird outsold the Corvette by more than 23-to-1. When marketing the Thunderbird, Ford chose to categorize it as a personal vehicle, the first of its kind, highlighting the comfort and convenience as “relaxed sportiness,” rather than speak to the Thunderbird’s formidable performance features.

The Thunderbird was a touted as a luxurious, upscale, sporty two-seat convertible until a backseat was added in 1958. Including the short production run from 2002-2005, Ford manufactured more than 4.4 million Thunderbirds. From the first two-seater convertibles, the T-bird grew larger until it was downsized for the first time almost 20 years later, perfected for cruising.
